Beats reveals new neutral-coloured Fit Pro designed in collaboration with Kim Kardashian

Beats, in collaboration with “multi-hyphenated” entrepreneur and reality star Kim Kardashian, has announced that the Beats Fit Pro are available in three neutral colours: ‘Moon,’ ‘Dune’ and ‘Earth.’

A press release from Beats describes the new wireless earbud colours as ‘light,’ ‘medium’ and ‘deep.’ The concept behind the new colour line is wireless earbuds that better blend in with the wearer by creating a “monochromatic or contrasted look.”

As someone who generally isn’t fond of bright-coloured wearable tech (especially earbuds/headphones), this line definitely appeals to me, especially given most wireless earbuds and headphones are available in either white or some sort of a stark colour.

“I wanted to break away from the idea that headphones have to be colourful to make a statement,” said Kim Kardashian. “This collaboration is special because it allows you to blend in or stand out, and Beats is known for creating products that showcase individuality.”

Beats Fit Pro features active noise cancellation, transparent, adaptive EQ modes, spatial audio, dynamic head tracking and most importantly, Apple’s proprietary H1 chip. They also feature a wing tip to help secure them in your ears, unlike Apple’s AirPods.

All three Beats Fit Pro colours release on August 16th at 10/am ET/7am PT for $249. For more on Beats’ Fit Pro, check out Brad Bennett’s wireless earbuds review.

Roblox bans developer behind game claiming to feature Kim Kardashian’s sex tape

Roblox, a children’s video game most adults (like myself) don’t understand, was featured in a rather negative way during the premiere of The Kardashians on Disney+’s Star.

In the premiere episode of The Kardashians, Kim Kardashian’s six-year-old son, Saint West, finds an ad for a Roblox game on their iPad that claims to feature unreleased footage of her 2007 sex tape. Though many assumed this was a very dark publicity stunt on the family’s part to promote the new iteration of their popular reality show, it appears that wasn’t the case.

In a statement to several publications (via The Verge), a Roblox spokesperson said the following:

“The referenced video was never available on our platform — we have strict moderation and policies to protect our community, including zero tolerance for sexual content of any kind which violates our Community Rules. The text reference to the tape that got around our filters was quickly taken down and fortunately visible only to an extremely small number of people on the platform. We also swiftly took down the associated experience and banned the community developer involved with the incident.” 

During the episode, Kardashian says that, “This all started earlier at the barbecue. It was clickbait insinuating that if you click on it, there was gonna be a new sex tape coming out.”

“Had my son been a bit older and been able to read, like, I would’ve been mortified, but I.. died inside,” Kardashian continues. Kardashian then goes on to say that she has “all the time, all the money, and all of the resources to burn them [Roblox] all to the fucking ground.” She also calls Kanye West, her former husband, to discuss the incident.

Amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the already very popular game creation title skyrocketed in user numbers. Roblox is free-to-play with in-game purchases via Robux. The title currently has over 164 million active users.

Jennifer Lawrence’s favourite Kardashian is ‘momager’ Kris

Jennifer Lawrence says her favorite member of the Kardashian family is Kris Jenner.

The 27-year-old actress appeared on ‘Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen’ and during her interview the host took the opportunity to quiz her on her close friendship with Kim Kardashian West and the rest of the clam.

Playing a game called ‘Plead the Fifth’, Lawrence was asked a series of three questions, to which she could only refuse to answer one, and so was forced to rank the members of the Kardashian/Jenner family in order of preference, and the Oscar winner compared the decision to ‘Sophie’s choice’, a famous film and book in which a Polish immigrant mother has to choose which one of her children is to be killed by the Nazis.

The ‘Red Sparrow’ star hesitantly began listing: "Kendall, Khloe, Kim, Kourtney…"

But then she stopped to say: "Oh god I hate this. Does Kanye count now? I forgot about Kris! Oh god, it’s like Sophie’s Choice. Please don’t do this. Kris is at the top, the rest I guess they’re at the bottom."

Lawrence also addressed the outlandish rumor that she is dating fellow actor Bratt Pitt following his separation from wife Angelina Jolie, laughing off the speculation but admitted she was secretly pleased to be linked to the Hollywood hunk.

When asked by a fan on the show if the rumor was true, she said: "No, but I’ve met him once in like 2013 so it was very random, but I also wasn’t in like a huge hurry to debunk it!"

Kim Kardashian West aims dig at Lamar Odom

Kim Kardashian has slammed Lamar Odom over the end of his marriage to her sister Khloe.

The celebrity duo finalised their divorce in September 2016, and the former basketball star has claimed that her knew their romance was over when Khloe was with "her second or third NBA ball player".

In a preview clip for his appearance on BET’s ‘The Mancave’, he said: "I still got my shawty’s name still on me – I mean, her initials still on me. For no reason…

"I understand when it’s over, it’s over. When she was with her second or third NBA ball player, I could see that."

After a Twitter follower described his comments as a "burn", Kim stepped in to defend her sister – who is expecting her first child with Cleveland Cavaliers NBA star Tristan Thompson – with a not-so-subtle response.

She simply tweeted: "Or second or third brothel."

Kim – whose newborn baby girl came into the world on Monday (15.01.18) – made her comments over two years after Lamar was hospitalised after he was found unconscious in a brother in Nevada, after which he spent four days in a coma.

Meanwhile, Lamar said in his recent interview that he believes his ex-wife – who postponed their divorce proceedings until he had made a recovery – will be a great mother when she welcomes her baby with Tristan.

He shared: "I’m happy for her! She took care of me. She’ll be a good mother, for real. She’s a great woman."

It comes after Khloe admitted she is in no "rush" to get married to Tristan.

The reality TV beauty also revealed they have no plans to wed in the near future.

Asked if she’ll marry again, she said: "I hope so, but I’m not in a rush for any of that. As you know, I’ve rushed quite a few things before, so right now I’m so loving the place I am in my life and I’m just happy with how things are going.

"We talk about it, for sure, but we’re both just happy where we are. What’s meant to be will be."

Kim Kardashian West’s son Saint treated for pneumonia

Kim Kardashian West and Kanye West’s son Saint is recovering after being treated in hospital for pneumonia.

The two year old was rushed to hospital in the Los Angeles area on Thursday (28.12.17) according to TMZ where he was treated for a "bad case of pneumonia".

Kim and Kanye are said to have remained at his bedside, sharing overnight duties, as Saint was kept in for two days, before being released on Saturday (30.12.17).

Sources say he is now at home and is recovering well.

Kim shared a family photograph of herself and Kanye with Saint and their four-year-old daughter North celebrating the Christmas holidays on Instagram on the same day Saint is thought to have been released.

She also posted a picture on SnapChat of her and Kanye looking happy and relaxed as they shared a kiss on New Year’s Eve at midnight.

The 37-year-old ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ star and the 40-year-old rapper are expecting a third child this year, via a surrogate.

Meanwhile, Kim has revealed her New Year’s resolution is to, "be on my phone less and be more in the moment."

She previously revealed she thinks the Paris robbers – who targeted her in October 2016 – did so because they could track her whereabouts on social media.

She said: "What I think happened now, after like thinking about it so much, is that there was probably a group of guys that were following us the entire trip. I was Snapchatting that I was home and that everyone was going out. So I think they knew [bodyguard Pascal Duvier] was out with Kourtney and that I was there by myself. They had to have known we were leaving that I was there by myself. They had to have known we were leaving that day. They had this window of opportunity and just went for it."

Kanye West makes his debut on Kardashian Christmas card

Kanye West has made his first full appearance in the Kardashian family Christmas card.

The 40-year-old rapper began dating wife Kim Kardashian West in 2012 but had so far chosen not to feature in her family’s reality series ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ and has never appeared with his wife and in-laws in their annual festive photo shoot.

But Kim, 37, has now revealed a picture in her 25 day countdown to Christmas on social media which shows her and Kanye with their daughter North, four, and son Saint, two, all wearing coordinating denim outfits.

This year, Kim took on the role of organising the Christmas card shoot and spilled to James Corden during an appearance on ‘The Late Late Show’ that the theme for 2017 is women and children.

She said: "This year’s Christmas card is shot really casually. We’re kind of doing a jeans-and-T-Shirts vibe. Really cute. All the kids are so hard to put together."

It is also first time Saint will be featured in the Kardashian Christmas card, as he was only a few weeks old at the last picture – which was in 2015 after the family opted not to release a festive message in 2016 following a turbulent few months which included Kim being robbed at gunpoint in Paris.

Earlier this year, Kanye deleted all his social media accounts in a further bid for privacy. He and Kim are currently expecting a third child, via a surrogate.

Kim’s older sister Kourtney Kardashian, 38, has three children – five-year-old daughter Penelope and sons Mason, seven, and Reign, two, with her ex-partner Scott Disick – and her younger brother Rob Kardashian, 30, has 13-month-old daughter Dream with his former fiancée Blac Chyna.

Her sister Khloe Kardashian is rumoured to be pregnant, as is her half-sister Kylie Jenner.

Kanye West to make Kardashian Christmas card debut

Kanye West is going to make his debut appearance in the Kardashian Christmas card.

The 40-year-old rapper married Kim Kardashian West back in 2014 after he started dating her in 2012, but despite being a husband and wife for over three years and the couple having two children together daughter North, four, and son Saint, two, the hip hop star has never joined his spouse and in-laws for their festive tradition.

However, Kim, 37, has teased a snippet of the upcoming card and on Monday (12.11.17) she posted a photo on her Instagram account and although it didn’t show the pair’s face, it clearly shows Kanye and Kim standing together in matching white T-shirts and stonewashed jeans.

She captioned the photo: "DAY 11 (sic)"

This year, Kim took on the role of organizing the Christmas card shoot and spilled to James Corden during an appearance on ‘The Late Late Show’ that the theme for 2017 is women and children.

She said: "This year’s Christmas card is shot really casually. We’re kind of doing a jeans-and-T-Shirts vibe. Really cute. All the kids are so hard to put together."

Kim’s older sister Kourtney Kardashian, 38, has three children – five-year-old daughter Penelope and sons Mason, seven, and Reign, two, with her ex-partner Scott Disick – and her younger brother Rob Kardashian, 30, has 13-month-old daughter Dream with his former fiancée Blac Chyna.

Kim – who is currently expecting her third child, a baby girl, via surrogate – has been revealing the family’s annual photo piece by piece and kicked off the 25-day countdown on her social media accounts.

This year also marks the first time Saint will be featured in the picture after he was only a few weeks old at the last picture – which was in 2015 after the family opted not to release a festive message in 2016 following a turbulent few months which included Kim being robbed at gunpoint in Paris.

The reality stars have done everything from posing in glamorous gowns on the stairs back in 2010 and even a chaotic carnival in 2013.

Kim Kardashian West calls in the ‘Dog Whisperer’

Kim Kardashian has resorted to the help of ‘The Dog Whisperer’ to preserve her sanity.

The ‘Keeping Up With The Kardashians’ star adopted pomeranian teacup pooch Sushi for her four-year-old daughter North earlier this year, but was forced to call in celebrity trainer Cesar Millan because the pooch’s barking was driving her mad.

In scenes from the latest episode of ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’, Kim told Cesar: "For my sanity, all I wanted was a really calm dog."

The renowned animal trainer – who has helped celebrity clients including Jada Pinkett Smith, ‘Frasier’ star Kelsey Grammer and the late ‘Playboy’ tycoon Hugh Hefner – watched Kim and North playing with Sushi and quickly spotted the mistakes they were making.

Cesar told Kim that Sushi’s bad behaviour was down to lack of structure and boundaries, pointing out they were rewarding the pup’s misdemeanours and letting the pet have free rein of the house.

He taught Kim, 37, a number of different techniques to calm the puppy down.

She said: "It’s really exciting to know that Sushi’s issues are fixable, and she’s just a part of the family now, so we gotta work on it."

Kim – who has son Saint, 23 months with husband Kanye West and is expecting a third child via a surrogate – previously tried to switch Sushi with her five-year-old niece Penelope Disick’s dog Honey.

But her sister Kourtney Kardashian – Penelope’s mother – ended up chasing Kim around her kitchen in a bid to retrieve Honey.

Kim insisted: "I swear she likes me better now. She’s like, adjusted. Look how calm she is."

Kim eventually admitted defeat after Kourtney pointed out that her young daughter would be devastated if she lost her furry friend.

Caitlyn Jenner: I haven’t spoken to Khloe Kardashian in 2 years

Caitlyn Jenner hasn’t spoken to Khloe Kardashian in two years.

The 68-year-old star hasn’t been as close to Khloe, Kim and Kourtney Kardashian – who she raised as her own daughters during her 23-year marriage to their mother Kris Jenner – since her transition and relations have been "lost" since the release of her book ‘The Secrets Of My Life’ earlier this year.

She said: "I don’t talk about that side of the family, I spent 23 years of my life with those kids it’s difficult to talk about it. Terribly, terribly sad.

"I’ve lost all relationship with them, yes I don’t talk to any of them anymore.

"Actually, it was Kendall’s birthday party a couple of days ago and I went to the party and I hadn’t talked to any of the kids on that side.

"Kris [in] probably a year, Kim probably nine months, Khloe, 33, two years – but she wasn’t there – and Kourtney I haven’t talked to her either."

But Caitlyn admitted she speaks to her biological daughters Kendall, 22, and Kylie Jenner, 20 – who she shares with Kris – "all the time", and insists the pair are the "only ones I am really concerned about".

Despite this, Caitlyn admits it "hurts" not talking to Khloe, Kim, 37, and Kourtney, 38, whose father Robert Kardashian passed away in September 2003.

She said: "The Kardashians … I spent 23 years of my life car-pooling those kids around, taking care of them when their father died, I kind of took over the role.

"It’s not even a problem I just don’t communicate with the others like I used to.

"It hurts but it’s not the end of the world, fortunately I have 10 children, every day of my life is filled with being with the kids, going to dinner and lots of stuff … fortunately I have a lot of children."

Caitlyn admitted she did briefly interact with Kim at Kendall’s party, and expects the sisters and her to make up at some point.

Speaking in an upcoming episode of ‘Piers Morgan’s Life Stories’, she added: "She said ‘hi’, that was about it. But it’s a start, we are a family and I am sure we will get together and solve our differences, it all has to do with what I said in the book."

The Kardashians were said to be less than impressed with Caitlyn’s memoir, which was released in April, after she hit out at Kris – who she divorced in 2015 after just under 24 years of marriage – insisting she told her she dressed as a woman, and did so in front of her before her transition.

But the showbiz matriarch has previously called Caitlyn’s claims into question, insisting "everything she said is all made up".

Speaking about the book to Kim and Khloe, Kris said: "Why does everything have to be that Kris is such a b***h and an a**hole?

"All through the book – Kris knew. Kris knew before I even made love to her. I’m like, ‘What?’

"I’ve never been so angry and disappointed in somebody in my whole life. I’m done."
